Why am I so Miserable2

heartburns and pains in the stomach,
such acdity, and such an unpleasant
tfSte in the MOUTH Why Mt times such
gnawing appetite, and then again such
disrelish for food? Why is the mind so
frequently irritable, responding, melan.

some imaginary dagger, and start at any
unexpected noise, becoming agitattd as
though some great calamity was impend.

pitations of the heart, this feversh rest
lessness, these night sweats; this dis
turbed and dreamy sleep, which brings
no refreshing rest, but only meanings
and muttelings, and the horrors of the
nightmareP
The answer IS: These are the symp.
toms Of digestion or Dyspepsia-the
beginning and the forerunner of almost
every other human disease. Indigestion
is a weakness or want of power of the
digestive fluids of the stomach TO con-
vert the food into healthy matter for the
proper nourishment of the body. 1t is
caused most frequently by the irregu.
larity of diet, or improper food, want of
healthy exercise and pure outdoor air.
II may be induced by mental distress
the shock of some great calamity. 1t
may be, and often is aggravated and in.
tensiiied, if not originally brought on,
by exhaustion from intense mental ap.
plication, of physical overwork, domes-
tic troubles, anxiety in business, or flnan.
cial barrassments, If the stomach
could always lie kept in order, death
would no longer be subject of fearful
anxiety TO the young and middle.aged.
but what would be contemplated by all
rs a visit of an expected friend at the
close of peaceful and happy old age.
However, the first hostile invader upon
the domain of health and happiness Is
Indigestion.
Is there any relief, any remedy, any
cure? That is the question of the sui
fering and unhappy dyspeptic. What Is
wanted Is a medicine that will thorough.
ly renovate the stomach, bowels, liver,
and kidneys, and afford speedy and eff
fectual assistance to the digestive organs,
and restore TO the nervou, and muscular
systems their original energy.
Such a medicine is happily at hand.
Never in the history of medical di=cov
cries, evidenced by dozen years thor
ough test, has there been found remedy
for Indigestion so speedy, so sure. and
so surprising in its results as Siegel's
Curative Syrup, but to-day ii is a standard
remedy for that almost universal afllic-
ton i'll every civilized country in Europe,
Asia, Africa and America. Public les
timonials and private letters from mill,
tary officers, bankers, merchants, ship
captains, mechanics, farmers, and their
wives and daughters, alike confirm its
curative powers.

Pill. S,
For Constipation,
Sluggish Liver, etc.

Unlike many kinds of cathartic
- medicines, do not make you
feel worse before you feel better.
Their operation is gentle, but thor
ough, and unattended with disagree
able effects, such as nausea, gripping
pains, &c.
Seigel's Operating Pills
are the best family physic that has
ever been discovered. They cleanse
the bowels from all irritating SUBJ
stances, and leave them in a healthy
condition.
The best remedy eXtant for the
bane of our lives-constipation and
sluggish liver.
These Pills prevent fevers and all
kinds of sickness, by removing all
poisonous matter from the bowels.
They operate briskly, yet mildly,
without any pain.
! If you take a severe cold, and are
threatened with a fever, with pains
in the head, back and limbs, one or
two doses of Seigel's Operat-
ing Pills will break up the cold
and prevent fever.
A coated tongue, with a brackish
taste, caused by foul matter in the
stomach. A few doses of SeigePs
Operating Pills will cleanse the
stomach, remove the bad taste, and
restore the appetite, and with it
bring good health.
Oftentimes disease, or partially
decayed food, causes sickness, nau-
sea and diarrhpa. If the bowels are
cleansed from this impurity with
dose of Seigeps Operating
Pills, these disagreeable effects
will vanish, and good health result,
Seigel's Operating Pills
prevent ill-effects from excess in
eating or drinking. A good dose at
bedtime renders person fit for bust
ness in the morning.
These pills, being Sugar-coated,
are pleasant to take. The disagree
able taste common to most pills is
obviated.

Normandy has even a dining-room

persons who have yachts, live on
them, and the plan so common on

WOmen'S Right to Equal Punish
 yaPgt

Since "women and children" are reckoned together in so many le- gal catagories, a certain argument can be made for treating them alike in crime. If women are so emotional and lacking in judge ment that they must be chased with insane persons and idiots in the matter of voting, why may they not claim the immunity of half-witted persons in the matter of punishment? If they must not have equal wages for equal work why should equal payment in the wages of sin," which is death, be so vigorously insisted upon in their case. Many years ago the famous Frenchman, Mich elet. called attention to the incon- sistancy of French law, which re- gards women as minors in all matters of legal rights but treats them as persons of full age in all matters of punishment. The con clusion he drew was that women should be regarded as minors in all cases and that the extreme penalty of the law should never be inflicted upon them. l would rather have women treated in all cases as persons of full age, and say, with Wendell Phillips: While woman is admitted to the gallows, the jail, and the tax-list we have no right to debar her from the ballot-box." A little boy said be did not mind teachers showing partiality, only he thought she ought to show 1t to all alike. Law should be impartial, but it should be impartial all around the circle in regard to rights as we'll as in regard to punishment. - Lucy Stone.

4 WuItitudInNus Clock.

The renowned horologist of Vil-
 lingen in the Black Forest, Chris
 tian Martin, has just completed a
 clock which, as marvel of con-
 struction, probably surpasses all that has hitherto been achieved in
 the clockmaking art. The clock
 is three meters high, two and
 three-quarters broad, and is set in
 magnificent Gothic case. It
 shows the seconds, minutes, quar- ter hours, hours, days. weeks, months, the four seasons of the year, the years, and leap years un- til the last second of the year 99,- 999 A. D. The clock is not only chro- nological. but geographical, and shows the right time, by compari- son in every latitude of the north gro and southern hemispheres. It records the successive phrases of the moon; and it strikes the min utes as we'll as the quarters.
 The mass of automati machin- cry tin it will seem stupendous, even to those who have seen the spendid specimens of local Black Forest clockmaking in the Clock makers Halls at Tribery, Furt wapgen, and other places, and the great clock on the opposite side of the Rhine in the Strassburg Ca thedral There are multitudes of working figures, representing the life of man, the creed of Christen- dom, and the old Roman and Ger man mythologies. There are sixty different personages to strike the sixty minutes-the Guardian An gel, Death as a skeleton, the twelve Apostles, the ages of man, the four seasons, the twelve signs of the zodiac, and seven Teutonic deities after which our days of the week are named-and many others.
 During the night hours, winter and summer, a night watchman comes forward and blows the hour on his horn. At sunrise cock appears awd crows lustily. The cuckoo, the inevitable ornament of a Black Forest ideal clock, remains concealed in the works of Herr Martins clock until spring. The great face of the clock has thirty two distinct compartments. A whole series of movable pictures are exhibited in succession by the rks-representing in turn the seven days of Creation and the fourteen "Stations of the Cross" A little sacristan rings a bell in the spire, and then kneels down and folds his hands. The musical works, always a great feature in the Black Forest clock, have 6 sweet. dutelike lone Echo.

Grown Jewels of France.

Since France has been under republican rule, the disposition of state treasurse has been subject of frequent discussion in her leg islative halls. At one time the money obtained for the crown jewels was applied to the found ing of trade schools, and the col lection was exhibited once in the Tuileries in order to help the me tai workers in setting up special school for their apprentices. Now it IS said the products of the sale are to be turned into the treasury. The whole collection is not to be sold. Three objects are to go to the melting pot, veg, the Imper- ial crown, the glaive of Louis XVIII, and the glaive of the Dau- phin. Several of the stones will be handed over to the Aineralogi- cal Museum and the School of Mines. to be used henceforth as specimens. A few objects will be preserved as curiosities, viz, the military sword, the reliquary brooch, the Regent diamond, the Mazarin diamond, the watch pre- scented by the Dey of Algiers, the large ruby, the dragon pearl, the badge of the Little Elephant of Denmark. The remaining treas ures will be treated as if they were seized for debt, and will be sold by auction in the Hotel Drouot. Exchange.

Is Marriage a Contract.

Judge Sloan of Wisconson, in rendering his decision in the Cath erwood eass at Waukesha dwelt at length on the question of marriage being civil contract. "The rule of common law courts of New York and some other States held as valid what is known as com- mon law marriage; that is, mar riage by present words between man and woman without ceremony I had supposed until arguments were presented that those cases were confined to cases involving descent of property or legitimacy of children, and did not suppose there were any cases of contest between the parties to such a con- tract. 1 was aware that from early times marriage had been consider ed as civil contract. l do not be- lieve, as counsel claims, it is civil contract like any other contract. It has little of the elements of a contract. If it is like any other contract, then it may be entered into at any time and in any form, and may be desolved at any time and in any form. If it is a civil contract in the proper sense of the word it may be entered into by proxy, ar d the recent marriage in Chicago is is indeed legal. Itmay be assigned like any other con- tract, and the assignee may bring an action for breach of contract or for divorce. Therefore in that sense we should have the unwont- ed spectacle of one man suing another, the plaintiff being the assignee of the contract, for breach of promise of marriage. If it was like any other contract, it might be entered into through an agent or personally. If 1t IS like any other contract the assignee may come into court and compel the specific performance of the con- tract. I say this much for the purpose of saying that it is not in any proper sense civil contract. I think the declaration of our State law and the adjudication of courts in that respect only intend to hold that 1t is civil contract as far as the engagement simply is concerned.,' In relation to the case before hlm the Judge found for the defendant, saying 8 suffici- ent contract was not established.

The Gentleman.

Pror. George l.. Carey writes But the true gentleman nowhere shows his superiority to other men more strikingly than in his be- havior toward those who have given him cause for offense. There is solid truth in the old Scotch proverb, Its aye gude to be ceevil as the auld wife said when she beckit to the deovil.' In society, to treat with marked coldness those whom we do not like is dis respectful to all present. Bishop Pearce reminds us, though the observation is not original with him, that in Christ's parable of the marriage feast, though the fact was plain respecting him who had not on wedding garment, yet the King addressed him with the mild appelation of friend, in the sense of one to whom good will and civility were due, and that Abraham called the rich man, even when in the place of tor ment, by the name of son."
